# About me
I'm a writer currently working on writing and editing a book from my fantasy series. It includes a system of Worlds and a constructed language I've worked on for almost ten years. I've long come to DA and Elfwood for inspiration in my writing, but now as I dive back into my Worlds, having visual inspiration is even more helpful for me. I am in awe of the talent I've found. If I could acquire one skill, it would be to draw well enough to show the world my characters as they really are in my head. As things are, I have to draw a picture with words and search to find renderings that resemble the faces I see as I type. All my perusals are made with deep respect for all of the content creators.# Comments

Reading your profile I can better understand much of why I have come here.
Usually I tend to browse through peoples galleries.. Or well at some point: A few o their favourates.
None the less I was arguably for the first time actually browsing the many favourates a member has chosen to collect.
I had enjoyed your general taste in fantastic illustrations and decided to leave a little note complimenting your taste (Within my personal perspective of course). But I see and better understand now how and why so such inspirational the so many collected works have become for you.
I know all too well "The pain of long termed projects"... And wish you all your hearts desires to evolve from it.
May success follow up on your dreams dearest!

No problem! Your work is varied and lovely! It's really inspiring. I'm in World Building mode for a new novel so I'm kind of trying to soak up everything I can to inspire myself, and you're helping! 😁 Also, if you're ever interested in creating a constructed language for your writing, let me know; I've been around that block a few times and have taught people some methods to use. I love to return the favor of helping where I can! Keep being awesome. 😁

And thanks for the thanks! 😅 Your work is just... amazing! I'm going to be doing a deep dive of it soon and just go through every piece. I'm a writer working on a new fantasy novel and I'm World(s) Building. Looking at great art is helpful in getting my creativity going. It's truly so helpful, and also heartening when I see anyone who resembles a character of mine. It's like a premonition of what could be down the road. It helps keep me motivated. As much as I'd adore being able to sit down and show my characters to the world, it's not a talent of mine. I need 1,000 words to combat one piece of yours! 😅 If I ever go with self publishing a fantasy project instead of the traditional route, you're definitely on my list of possible artists to get a commission from. You're just, you're so good. So I guess, keep being awesome and it'll be more than thanks enough.

Of course! No problem! I can't... I can't draw well (I'm working on it, would love to, and am trying, but still, it's not my skill) and the thing I feel most at ease with it zentangling. But I can't imagine the kind of creativity that fuels you. Truly. It must take a certain kind of creativity that's a little synesthetic, and informed by instinctual appreciation for spacial relations. I'm blown away by the breadth and depth of your work. So, well, keep being awesome, I guess, and it's more than thanks enough!

I cannot draw either, that is why I am using my computer to make my fractals.
Making fractals give me the chance to use my creativity!
Thanks for your nice comment
